The True Heiress's Return

Chapter 322

"What did you say?" Xanthe was shocked to hear such disgusting words from Lucy. Lucy had always been by her side, almost like a sister. Xanthe had always shared good things with Lucy, only to find out it was all a show for money. That sisterly bond was just a lie for her own gain. Seeing Xanthe hurt actually satisfied Lucy, as if the truth was finally out. After feeling so oppressed for years, Lucy had been waiting for this chance.

Lucy said, "Xanthe, who do you think you are? If it weren't for your money and my parents pushing me to be nice to you, I wouldn't put up with you!

"Do you think I'm the only one who feels this way? Your so-called friends, Yvette and Berry, and even Shakira... what's the difference?"

Xanthe's fists tightened, and she growled, "Shut up! Shakira isn't like you, greedy scum!"

But Lucy just laughed louder. "Xanthe, the truth hurts! With your personality, you can't have real friends!"

Angered by Lucy's mockery, Xanthe stepped closer and slapped her hard. "How dare you hit me, Xanthe-" Lucy jumped up, ready to fight back.

Lucy was no match for Xanthe, though, who quickly slapped her down. With her palm stinging, Xanthe looked down at Lucy with cold disdain. "Save your sob story. Don't blame your parents for your failures. You've used me!

"If you had any dignity, you'd return what you took from me. But you only think about showing off. You're just pathetic. "From now on, our bond is over. Don't ask me for anything; I refuse to acknowledge a cousin who's so ungrateful!" Xanthe turned and left, firm in her decision.

At the staircase, Jackson and Odalyn were eavesdropping. Seeing Xanthe leave, they rushed to her with fake smiles.

"What happened, Xanthe? Did Lucy upset you? I'll teach her a lesson!" Jackson said.
